THE DREAM - I'm swimming in a huge lake playfully with a lot of woman who like and share the same amount of interest in the current and past guy I've been seeing. In the beginning of the dream its about the current guy me and the woman are just swimming and talking( I was with him last night and he's changing a little to please me). In the second half It was a competition that didn't include swimming which was with my ex love (whom I'm just getting over) and I lost. But there were so many women who joined the competition because they wanted him as much as I did and I was amazed because I hadn't realized how popular he was. I just felt "oh well I lost" and kept swimming.

GUESSWORK The dreamer had been thinking about a man she was attracted to. She felt was she starting to realise that other women were attracted to him too. So she was starting to ground herself in reality. She was starting to think her expectations were too high.
